I Love
Fonts
Don't you just love fonts? It is amazing how a font can set the
tone. It can be flowy, romantic to tax-return-letter-boredomness.
But that is of course well known. There is a lot to do about
fonts.
The Dutch government has chosen {after a long design process} one
single font for there entire dtp-, graphics- and advertisement
department. I can understand that they chose this direction, it
shows a strong and unified feel. The designer and the font can be
found
here.
Saving the environment can even start at designing the font. A
small seed has planted among graphic designers to look at the font
they are designing not just from an esthetic point but also from a
production point.
This blog is full of variety and inspiration, from old to new
fonts, to book reviews. You can find tutorials, great links and
free fonts as well.
